hey all. been following the boards for a short time and have just started building. one question i have right off the bat though is how to get a clock to "stutter." i have been able to wrap my head around slowing down with a 4040 but don't know the first place to begin with making a clock stutter. (i eventually be able to manipulate a clock to stutter for fills and/or every other bar if that makes sense.) sorry if this is a stupid question or has been answered a zillion times. any help?

Maybe a 4040 to divide the clock (you can start with a faster one)
followed by a mux to selct which division you want.
and then you can contol the mux directly with some switches,
a couple of oscillators, a random bit generator
(these work nice) or some other logic._________________"My perf, it's full of holes!"http://phobos.000space.com/http://www.acidtrash.com/Stickney Synthyards

i thought something like this circuit might work ok. i guess a burst generator is something like what im looking for... maybe the answer is as simple as gating faster and slower clock speeds with a trigger sequencer of sorts.

am i right in thinking the momentary switches coupled with trigger inputs could be rad? divided clocks triggering the burstgen open as well synced clocks driving the clock in of the 4017 of the burstgen?
